Q: We are testing your css drop down menu and everything is fine, except for the slow load in IE7.
After the page is loaded, the first time we open each item it takes a lot of time to appear.

Do you have any solution for this problem?

A: Check that you've set the following parameter:

  var dm_writeAll=0;

You can also try to turn off transitional effects:
  var transition=-1;

And adjust the following parameters:
  var smShowPause=100;
  var smHidePause=500;


Q: I'm currently experimenting with your script which I far more performant than any of the other I have tried so far, so we will probably go with yours and get a distributer license.

I do have a problem though...

I have two menus on my site.

Unfortunately, as they are being used, if you go over the first item in the left menu, it will show its submenu at the top; if you go over the first item of the top menu, it will also show the contents of the second menu...

How can we change this?


A: Installation of your menu is not correct.
See more info about installation here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/installation-info.html

There is no
<script type="text/javascript">  var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
parameter on your page.

Notice also that you should call dmenu.js file only once and then callyour data files.
Now you have two calls of dmenu.js file.


Q: I now wish to dynamically change the drop down menu in html parameters. For this, I have set the following parameters:

// Dynamic Menu
  var dynamic=1;

1.Please send me the reference link for the dynamic menu commands available (for javascript).

2.Now AFTER initialization, dm_init();, I wish to change the default   var itemTarget="Sub_Main";

How do I do that??

A: You can find more info about API functions here:
http://deluxe-menu.com/functions-info.html

Unfortunately it is not possible to change drop down menu in html parameters (  var ...)after menu initialization.
So, there is no way to change
  var itemTarget="Sub_Main";

But you can change target for each item individually (targetparameter in menuItems) using dm_ext_changeItem function.

  var menuItems = [
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
[text, link, iconNormal, iconOver, tip, target, itemStyleInd, submenuStyleInd, jsFilename],
...
];



Q: We are facing a problem with display of deluxe menu in Internet explorer 7.0
Java script menuis displaying fine in Mozilla Firefox & Internet Exploer 6.0.


A: Your browser has JavaScript option disabled.
It means that no one JavaScript element can be run.
You should to enable JavaScript in IE:

Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Custom level... -> Scripting -> Active Scripting = Enable

There is no way to enable these preferences automatically, in othercase there are no reasons to create security preferences.

You can use search engine friendly code, so you'll see all yourlinks (for the main items and submenus) when your security settings in IE doesn't allow Javascript.

You can generate search engine friendly code.
Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:

<div id="dmlinks">
<a href="menu_link1">menu_item_text1</a>
<a href="menu_link2">menu_item_text2</a>
...etc.
</div>


To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
